How to Prepare Seniors for a Winter Storm

It looks like snow might come to Simpsonville this weekend. And so we’ve got everything prepared. That picture above is what not preparing for a storm looks like. We don’t plan on any of that in Simpsonville!
But if you are a family member or are still providing in-home care for your loved one, it’s best to review preparation techniques. The goal is easy: to keep your loved one safe through the winter.

Luckily, we have a lists of items to keep in a duffle bag and dust off when the storm comes. If your relative or loved one already lives here at the Springs, they have nothing to fear!
